Excel Geek Help Needed
Okay....I'm TOTALLY new to this type of use for Excel (see USER NAME). I need somebody to tell me if it is possible to have information from a page like this: http://www.covers.com/pageLoader/pag...-2005/ats.html Into an excel file on my laptop. The information on that page will be updated, in some cases, on a daily basis and I would like the information in the excel file to reflect this. The information from this page that I am specifically interested in is under the ATS, W/L, and O/U categories. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. -- BrandNewToThis ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BrandNewToThis's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28439 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=480396 |
